Somehow Losman still doesn't seem to realize when he's in his own end zone.

It's about turnovers....

There's no way in hell that the Cincy D should've gotten 5 INTS off of him.

Half or not, it was enough to win, though the Bills trolls at a Miami fansite I visit are complaining that the referees hand the Steelers and Patriots every game. Then again, these are people who think JP Losman is going to take them to the Super Bowl. Whatever, guys.

I really thought Plummer would step up now that Cutler is right there waiting to take over. Guess the QB situation over there is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The way the Pats sealed the game was cool. They got the ball back with six minutes left and they literally ran the clock out. Dillon converted a fourth down and then it was take a knee time.

That's what happens when you have to shotgun your way through games. Minnesota didn't gel as a unit until a couple of games after Culpepper got injured.

At least I can say that the Vikings' long tradition of sucking has provided benefits for the Dolphins in the form of Scott Linehan and Daunte Culpepper.

So that's it for Costas and his crew? No post game show? Where do they have to be tomorrow morning?

Well I will grant that he's a 100% improvement over Gus Ferrotte and Jay Fiedler....

apparently....

Is it me, or did most of that seem a bit forced?

Good to see the Patriots are still a well-coached and clutch team. Can't wait for the second Miami/NE game.

It did seem a bit rushed.

I guess then you don't have much faith in Miami in the first one?

Yep they need to answer right now.

If they don't, NBC will lose audience pretty quickly.

Indy with 23 rushing yards in the first half, but they don't miss Edge

Frerotte, Fiedler, Feeley, Griese, Huard, Rosenfels, all of them. Culpepper is a dramatic improvement over them all.

"Indianapolis with no rushing game" Well gee, I wonder why that is.

Yup. They need it to be a one possession game.
